What do you think of Clint Eastwood?Sound Bite: Matthew Borlenghi – Without equal. I feel punked, I feel lucky. I feel punked. I feel lucky punk. As a director he’s awesome he makes beautiful films you can’t ask more then that, I would give my left nut to work with him on a film as my director.

B-Roll – Shot of Clint Eastwood.

00:04:12232.57

Sound Bite: Clint Eastwood Well yeah there’s those kind of movies and then there’s movie CG uh computer generated and we didn’t have the opportunity to do that in Dirty Harry days so our guys could only do what they could do but uh yeah there’s the fantasy films and that seems to be hot with the young audience and that’s cool. I think adult audience’s they’ll like something a bit more real.

00:04:46266.57

Sound Bite: Clint Eastwood Absolutely not. I have no take on it, it looks like uh. Absolutely will not be VP. No I think uh I think it’s up to another generation to pick up a mantel on that, it’s uh I’m spending most of my time directing films. I’ll do a character if it’s the right, if it suits me to try to reach back to another day is not practical.

Sound Bite: Lonny RossAlright enough already with Clint Eastwood. What brings me out here? Like to this event or California? Oh well Dirty Harry is a cultural icon of a character and it’s inspiring and I’m fascinated by, you know and any movie from that era I’m fascinated by.

Sound Bite: Lonny RossI am from New York. I actually got out here about a week ago. Good times. Traffic is always fun and uh looking for some good slice of pizza but other than that uh, no it’s beautiful (talking) The babes, I’m staying in Venice so I’m out here just to enjoy the sun. I was like feeling a little congested in New York so I came here for space, and the ladies. If they’ll talk to me sure. That’s the problem.

00:07:18418.57

Sound Bite: Lonny RossUh, that’s a good question, I need to I need to, you don’t think of him I mean cause it’s that dark comedy that he dose so well but I guess I am not as familiar as I would like to be. No.

00:07:38438.57

Sound Bite: Lonny RossIntense. Intense glare, I admire his glare and his just screen presence is something to admire you know it’s really interesting certain people just have that screen presence and uh the man standing five feet away from me does so uh yeah. I admire it and I aspire to be, to have that one day comedy or otherwise.

00:07:58458.57

Sound Bite: Lonny RossVery incredible, incredible director, you know um what hold on what’s that movie where he play a national geographic uh (talking) oh my god Bridges of Madison County, I love that movie, I’m not saying he directed it but he was so so good in that movie, such a macho guy, such a heart warming role it’s got five stars in my Netflix rating so I love that movie.

Sound Bite: Jimmy Smiths/Wanda De JesusWanda De Jesus – Um during in between takes, wicked, wicked sense of humor, wonderful, wonderful fast on the take, you know I mean uh the roles, I did Blood Work which was a heavy themed thing so we were pretty serious but uh in between takes he would say really wonderful things and crack up his crew and we had a good time.

00:14:49869.57

Sound Bite: Jimmy Smiths/Wanda De JesusJimmy Smiths – I didn’t really get to work with him I just watched him work so it never was about I was just amazed.Wanda De Jesus – I tell you. I’m just going to say one like off the record, it’s really great, in between takes we uh uh we uh during Blood Work, Clint and I were in this post-koidal kind of sleeping and we’d get interrupted by the intruder and the scene is over and we’re all, we’re getting ourselves together and walking out and he says well you look like Dina so I don’t feel like I cheated on my wife. So I turn to him and I looked at him and I said well you look nothing like Jimmy what does that make me? And we crack each other up throughout the filming this way.Jimmy Smiths – I wasn’t there for that one. (Laughing)

00:15:37917.57

Sound Bite: Jimmy Smiths/Wanda De JesusWanda De Jesus – I think he’s done fine because he’s had a great career but um it’s, it’s two different schools because one of the things that I know about Clint is he’s all for um improvisation and if you are an actor who is comfortable with improve with, with being your body in time and space then you’re going to be fine. Um he loves accidents. So I’m one of those actors that I can go swing that way but I’m also of the school of rehearsal because there are actors that become better with rehearsals but the key.Jimmy Smiths – He likes to shoot rehearsals.Wanda De Jesus – He like to shoot rehearsals his story to me first day of filming was he shoot rehearsals of Bridges of Madison County, he got Meryl Streep to agree and he shot her rehearsals which is phenomenal to me you know so that’s a testament to how he like to work and if you stay loose enough and relaxed you can really enjoy and I just really enjoyed watching him work.Jimmy Smiths – I think that has to do also with the security that he has as a director with the actors that he brings to the party. (talking) Ah really? No it was they actually did it at the Pasadena Playhouse, not with me, but. (talking)

Sound Bite: John Milus You know, it’s really amazing that he has done so much. The best part of what he has done is he’s done what he’s wanted to do. He’s done so much and it’s all interesting work I mean all of it you know sometimes there very risky things, some of them are not so successful but they’re all, that is what films should be. Somebody doing stuff it’s not sequels, it’s not easy things to do and some of them are just stunning you know. And uh he’s really got an extraordinary career as a director.

00:21:021242.57

Sound Bite: John Milus Yeah but I often wonder what other kind of movies are there, you know I mean other than amusement park rides you know? Aren’t movies supposed to be driven by characters? Wasn’t the Bridge on the River Quad driven by characters? I didn’t go just to see the bridge blow up.
